Are the cutters carbide?

Hi Lou,Yes, this bit is made of TiCo Hi-Density Carbide for maximum cutting life. Hope that helps!

No. It will make the cut, but it does not follow a straight line very well unless the tool (NOT THE BLADE) is supported securely. You can't use a blade-guide because the carbide cutting blade will make short work of anything it contacts...including a metal straight-edge.

Absolutely not, it is a carbide sharpener, plus the blades are replaceable.

Metal, like the blades. The shears are very solid, sharp, terrific to eagerly work with. I'm very happy that I bought them and make sure they are within immediate reach. If this is what you need then I urge you to buy them.

It has a glass breaker and a seat belt cutter. I don't know if its carbide and I never used it for glass breaking. Very nice and sturdy blade though. Breaking with a short end point like this can permit close shattering of glass that might damage hands and arms.

On the box it says that the cutters were "made in China." The cutters are nothing special. I wish the largest one were bigger but it is biscuit size. They are stainless steel. One good thing I like is that they have the handles and they all fit together to save space. But like I said...they are nothing special. The edges are super sharp which is also a plus I guess.

Blade is Carbide and 1/4" thick as far as thickness of cut . Will make slots for #0, #10 and #20 Biscuits by setting depth stop correctly. Great tool and very well built!

Yes! My item included a brush-cutter blade and a protective cover for the blade. I opt to use the 100 tooth 9" carbide blade, far more superior, found here and/or eBay.

I believe so. Power is pretty good, so a carbide blade should be fine.The T-shank should be a versatile product and fit fine.

I don't believe so...don't have the cutter any more to look but the manufacturer is in Georgia and they can answer the question for sure.

Probably hardened steel, if it was carbide it would mostly likely be listed in the literature.

It depends. The carbide blades at two sided, and I have seen the steel blades in both the two sided and four sided design. I would just say that, to be safe, just consider them two sided. Also, I recommend the carbide blades over the steel blades.

I don't recall the titanium statement , the blades are not marked they appear to be a high grade steel on one side and a carbon steel in the other side that has the wire cutting edges in it, either way, they an incredible product, I use them as every day carry, that says a lot for a pair of scissors

No these are just for sheet metal. I think they make shears for that. Not sure if dewalt makes them or not. Hope that helps.

I believe so. The ones they always cut pennies with. Very functional knives for the money though

They do, BUT, they seem to be made of steel that is somewhat over-hardened. The ones I put on my ss 4235 had several dings along the cutting edge after the first use although I had mowed an area that was clear of hard debris. I resharpened them but haven't looked at them since using them about 4 hours, again on clear grass. They did cut well after resharpening. I'm not sure if I will repurchase or not at this time.

I'm not going to try it for you, but they are quite sharp, and with a block of hard-wood beneath (emd grain would likely be best), a heavy hammer and a sharp blow they do quite well. I'd be doubting more than a couple of layers of velt at a time, but do not actually know. I like the cutters. They have served me well, what little I've thus far used them. Good purchase.
